SUICIDE SILENCE: Second ‘The Black Crown’ Webisode Released

The second in a series of webisodes featuring behind-the-scenes footage from the recording sessions for “The Black Crown”, the new album from California deathcore masters SUICIDE SILENCE, can be viewed below. The CD, which features guest appearances by KORN singer Jonathan Davis and SUFFOCATION frontman Frank Mullen, was recorded with heavyweight producer Steve Evetts (THE DILLINGER ESCAPE PLAN, EVERY TIME I DIE, HATEBREED) and will be released on July 12 via Century Media Records.

SUICIDE SILENCE began filming a video for the song “You Only Live Once” on Sunday, June 5. Vocalist Mitch Lucker commented, “This music video is going to be fucking insane!”

The cover artwork for “The Black Crown” was created by the Delaware-based freelance graphic designer and illustrator Ken “K3N” Adams, who has previously worked with LAMB OF GOD.

“‘The Black Crown’ is our most mature, well-produced, and well-written record as a band,” Lucker told AOL‘s Noisecreep. “People should come see us play songs from it live on [this summer’s Rockstar Energy Drink] Mayhem [Festival] this summer, or buy it when it comes out!”

Lucker also revealed that “The Black Crown” will be SUICIDE SILENCE‘s third and final release for longtime label Century Media Records. Lucker noted that the band will be free agents after the release of this album.
